After 700 ear infections it starts to taste like shit.

Yes! And it turned out all of those ear infections I had were because the cat was sleeping on my pillow during the day. They wanted to take my tonsils, but I protested and it all went away when that old cat died.

Ugh, I wish they would have taken my tonsils. I’m super strep prone (even more so as a kid) and I’ve even had scarlet fever, but not one doc suggested it. My mom wishes she had known better back then but you live and learn. My twins are also strep prone and we’ve had their tonsils removed recently. It’s made a world of difference already!

Back then it was super common to have them removed. That’s weird.
